Script Components

Script Components are predefined scripts written for Script Tasks. All Script Components are found in the component tab in the left panel of the modeller.

Available script components

At the moment there are eight released script components and we are continuously developing more useful scripts to use.

Set Field Value - Use this script component to write static information or retrieved data within an instance to a form field. Read more in the article Set Field Value.

Clear Field Value - Use this script component to automatically clear a Data Object form field from any connected form in your process model. Read more in the article Clear Field Value.

Copy all Fields - Use this script component to automatically copy multiple form field values from one or more forms to multiple form fields in any designated form. Read more in the article Copy all Fields.

Move to Folder - Use this script component to automatically move a form from the instance root directory or any other created directory to any specified location. Read more in the article Move to Folder.

Scripts with reading and writing purpose

All data needed in the script have to be available for the Script Task. Data in Barium Live is either managed in variables or in Data Objects. Variables is always available globally in each instance, therefore you do not need to prepare anything if only variables are handled in the script. If you are using data or fields in Data Objects on the other hand you will need to enable them for the Script Task. If the script will catch data from a Data Object it needs to be put as an input to the task and if the script will write to a Data Object it needs to be put as an output to the task. Read more about input/outputs in the article Add forms to your process.

NOTE: A Script Task can only ever have one data output. If you wish to affect multiple Data Objects, you need to add more Script Tasks.
